My thoughts exactly.
that kind of implies MLs, "tankies," etc aren't Western leftists as well. separating material analysis from one's own societal conditions is more complex than just blanket-denouncing swathes of other ideological positions. I think if you live in the West and you're a leftist, that definitionally makes you a "Western leftist."
What do you consider "western leftism?" I was under the impression the term "tankie" refers to a subset of western leftists as well.

He's a leftist streamer who's debated several conservative and alt-right figures and debunks far-right content.
My favorite one was the person who said that they, an anarchist, thought unaliving the Tsar was wrong. Like these people aren’t even pretending to follow their own ideology lmao
